Review:
The North House Museum in Lewisburg, West Virginia, tells the fascinating stories about the lives of Greenbrier Valley residents. The museum occupies a former home of the local lawyer John North and his wife Charlotte built in 1820. The house went through several incarnations before becoming the museum. The Greenbrier Historical Society and North House Museum had its headquarters in the North House since 1976. It has owned the building since 1992. Today, the house hosts the museum’s permanent displays and temporary exhibits, featuring diverse items from across the Greenbrier Valley. Some of the more interesting exhibits are General Robert E. Lee’s training saddle, Civil War artifacts, an 18th century covered wagon and furniture made by local craftsman David Surbaugh. The exhibits cover the period from early settlements to the Civil War and beyond.
